At 16 he is already worth a billion. We are talking about Lamine Yamal, the baby phenomenon of the Barcelona youth team.

At the age of 15 years, 9 months and 16 days Yamal made his debut in La Liga, becoming the youngest debutant in the Blaugrana first team . Then, at 16 years and 57 days there was also the "first time" in the senior Spanish national team, in the match won by La Roja 7-1 at Georgia. A debut celebrated in the best possible way: Yamal in fact scored the seventh goal of his, thus becoming both the youngest debutant and the earliest scorer in the history of the Iberian national team.

Enough to guarantee a bright future. In fact, the renewal of the contract has also arrived in these hours, signed in the presence of president Joan Laporta, vice president Rafa Yuste and sporting director Deco.

But what makes the news above all is the fact that a mind- boggling termination clause has been included in the agreement, which binds the 16-year-old to Barça until June 2026: one billion euros.
